The Phenicell Regenerative Institute (PRI), previously known as the Cedar Stem Cell Institute (CSCI) in Columbus, Ohio was established in 2015 by neurosurgeon Dr. Joseph A. Shehadi, MD, FAANS, FRCSC. The CSCI was created as a first-class institute for treating patients with neurological and musculoskeletal disorders using adult stem cell injections and regenerative medical technology. The Phenicell Regenerative Institute was named after the world-famous Cedars of Lebanon which for centuries have been symbolic of longevity and prosperity. We believe that stem cells have a potentially transformational effect on the practice of medicine and aspire to be at the forefront regarding the treatment, research and education of this technology.
